Waterproof Cordless Lamps: IP Ratings Explained and What You Actually Need
5 min read
SIGNATURE COLLECTION
Seven handcrafted cordless table lamps — each made to order in hand-finished brass or anthracite. Nordic design heritage meets modern LED technology: up to 109 hours per charge, warm 2700K light, and a 2-year warranty on every lamp.
Why Signature
Every lamp in the Signature Collection is built to your order. There is no warehouse of pre-made lamps waiting to ship. When you place an order, your lamp enters production — hand-assembled, hand-finished, and quality-checked before it leaves the workshop. That is why lead times run 8 to 26 weeks, and why the result is worth the wait.
The distinction matters. Mass-produced cordless lamps cut corners where you cannot see them — thinner metal, cheaper LED drivers, smaller batteries. A Signature lamp uses hand-finished brass or anthracite housings, high-CRI LEDs rated at 90+, and lithium-ion cells sized for 94 to 109 hours of runtime. The materials are chosen to age well. Brass develops a natural patina over years of use; anthracite stays clean and modern.
Each Signature lamp ships with a 2-year warranty, a USB-C charging cable, and the confidence that you are buying a piece designed to last a decade — not a season.

Buyer's Guide
Brass suits warm interiors — think wood tones, warm whites, terracotta, and leather. It pairs naturally with traditional, mid-century, and Scandinavian spaces. Anthracite is the choice for contemporary settings — concrete, cool grays, marble, and minimalist palettes. Both finishes are available across the Avenue, Shelby, Vega, and Aira.
Polished finishes have a mirror-like sheen that catches and reflects light — ideal for formal dining rooms, hotel lobbies, and spaces where you want the lamp to sparkle. Brushed finishes have a softer, matte texture that absorbs light more gently. They are more forgiving with fingerprints and feel quieter on a casual table setting or bedside.
The Avenue leads with crystal glass — a diffuser that refracts light and adds sparkle to any table. The Shelby is clean-lined and geometric, anchoring a table with architectural confidence. The Vega is sculptural and organic, a design piece that starts conversations. The Aira is the softest — rounded and airy, perfect for smaller surfaces. The Asteria disc lamp is iconic minimalism, while the Cassia offers textured ceramic in three colourways.
For home use — a few hours each evening — any Signature lamp lasts days between charges. For restaurants and hotels running lamps through every service, the 109-hour models (Avenue, Shelby, Vega) are the best choice: charge twice a week and never think about it. Our charging carts and stations charge up to 10 lamps simultaneously overnight.
By Setting
Where our customers place their Signature Collection lamps.
The Avenue is the centrepiece for formal tables. Its crystal glass catches candlelight, glassware reflections, and ambient room light alongside its own warm glow. One lamp per table, dimmed to the second setting.
Place a Cassia on a console or side table where outlets are inconvenient. Three colourways — sand, sage, charcoal — coordinate with virtually any decor. Read more in our living room lighting guide.
Boutique hotels use Signature lamps in lobbies, suites, and restaurant tables. Centralised charging with our charging solutions makes deployment practical at scale. Trade pricing available.
No cord dangling behind the nightstand. Touch-dim to the lowest setting for reading without disturbing your partner. The Asteria Mini is the most popular bedside pick. See our bedroom lighting guide.
Four Signature lamps carry IP44 splash resistance — the Avenue, Shelby, Vega, and Aira. Browse the outdoor collection.
No flames, no cables, no wind sensitivity. Deploy 20+ lamps in minutes using our charging carts. The Shelby is the most popular choice for event planners. See our wedding lighting guide.

When you order a Signature lamp, it enters production — hand-assembled, hand-finished, and quality-checked before it ships. There is no pre-made warehouse stock. This means lead times of 8 to 26 weeks depending on the model and finish, but the result is a lamp built specifically for you.
Lead times depend on the finish, the model, and current production demand. Polished finishes generally have shorter lead times than brushed. After you place your order, you will receive a confirmed estimated delivery window within 3 business days.
Polished finishes have a mirror-like sheen that reflects light — ideal for formal settings. Brushed finishes have a softer, matte texture that absorbs light gently. Brushed is more forgiving with fingerprints and suits casual or contemporary settings. Both are available in brass and anthracite.
The Avenue, Shelby, Vega, and Aira all carry IP44 certification — splash-resistant from any direction. They handle rain splashes, dew, humidity, and spilled drinks. The Asteria, Cassia, and Asteria Mini are designed for indoor use only.
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Brass naturally develops a patina over time — many owners prefer this aged character. To maintain the original shine, use a standard brass polish periodically. Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool.
Yes. Our trade program offers wholesale pricing for orders of 10+ lamps, a dedicated account manager, and charging infrastructure (carts and stations) sized to your fleet. Contact the trade team for a custom quote.
Every Signature lamp carries a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials, finish, electronics, and LED components. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, drops, or use of non-IP44 models outdoors in wet conditions.
Product pages show high-quality photos of each finish. For trade customers, we offer material samples on request. You can also visit our stockists to see lamps in person — find locations on our Stores page.
